Love My Mr. Lincoln

Of the 20 roses in my garden, Mr. Lincoln tops the list of favorites. The deep red buds are so beautiful that it is hard to resist cutting them and taking them in the house before they open so that I can see them more hours of the day. When they are open, the sweet, delicate fragrance is exactly what I think a rose should smell like, and a bouquet in the house fills the room with this lovely fragrance. My Mr. Lincoln is a very healthy, hardy busy and will grow to as much as 8 ft. tall if I don't keep it trimmed back. It produces numerous stems of single blossoms and always brings comments from visitors. I would definitely recommend this rose to anyone who loves a beautiful, fragrant red rose.
